Oregon Sybarites
‘HERE is an old Greek story of the people of the seventh
century B. C. that applies with great aptitude, unfortun
ately, to the student body of the University of Oregon at the
present time.
A man, Cleisthenes by name, had a daughter who he desired
to marry to the best suitor that could be discovered in all
Greece. He issued a proclamation, stating that he would give
the hand of his daughter, Agariste, to the one who could prove
his superiority in a series of games and contests which would
be held at a certain time.
Agariste was.desirable as a woman; the family. Cleisthenes
was great and rich; so as the date for the games drew near
suitors from many parts began to gather and to survey one
another with appraising, jealous eyes—eyes filled with fight
and spirit.
There came Gne who aspired to this honor, by name Smindy
rides, of a people noted for their love for luxury, the Sybarites.
Now Smindyrides was of good figure, young and strong, and
seeming, at first thought, an altogether fitting mate for the
fair Agariste. But a saying went about among those gathered
that Smindyrides, while sleeping on a bed of roses, had com
plained on arising that his rest had been disturbed by a petal
being crumpled under him, and that, while traveling toward
the appointed place, he had declared it fatigued him to see the
men at work in the fields.
As his people wgre fabled as of a land where ease and com
fort were first essentials, it may easily be imagined that these
stories were believed truly, and it was not long before the
father of Agariste heard them, and was prejudiced in con
sequence.
However, Smindyrides was satisfied with the world and
with himself; and he continued to lie on his bed of rose petals
and to complain of fatigue from watching the others train for
the competition. Need the story be told further?
"Will Oregon win the approaching battle with 0. A. C.
while the students lie complacently on their beds of rose
petals, fondly imagining they have but to stretch forth a lan
guid hand and Victory will land flutteringly acquiescent?
Victory is not tlyit kind of a bird. Victory is caught only
by spirit and fight and the indomitable striving which comes
from healthy uncertainty—not by Sybarites.
The Call to Arms
«rpi'IE CALL to Arms”—wluvt a world of memory the
» phrase brings to our ears attuned to the roll of drums,
the tread of marching feet, and the thunder of artillery. But
—“iV doesn’t take a war to make a hero,” and the American
Red Cross must carry on in peace as well as in war. The suf
fering of humanity must be alleviated.
Today the Red Cross call to arms is being sounded for the
last, time on the University campus. Students are being asked
to give one dollar out of a year's allowance for the good of
the cause. Said a great philanthropist : ”1 shall pass through
this world but once. Any good thing, therefore, that 1 can
do, or any kindness that 1 can show to any human being—
let me do it now. Let me not defer it or neglect it. for 1 shall
not pass this way again.”—M. L. M.
Why a Fine Arts Building?
ADEQUATE facilities for the development of the fine arts
are a growing need on the University campus. Realization
of this need is the explanation of the canvass for $300,000
among the alumni for the erection of a fine arts building.
Aside from a library the University needs a building of. this
kin* more than any other type of structure. The Woman’s
building was designed for club purposes and up to the present
time all space originally designed for such uses is utilized to
house the University’s priceless art collections. The space is
utterly inadequate for museum purposes and must as quickly
as possible be Restored to the students for its original purpose.
The W(\nan’s building is not fire-proof; valuable collections
should not be exposed to fire hazards.
The alumni of tlyj state are being called upon to contribute
to the fund for the creation of the structure. To Mrs. George
T. Gerlinger, member of the University Board of Regents and
chairman of the campaign, the fine arts building is not merely
a vision, but a reality that will be realized as soon as each loyal
son and daughter makes his or her contribution for the making
of a greater Oregon!—M. W.

BETAS FORFEIT GAME
AFTER WINNING 9 TO 4
Phi Kappa Psi Protests Use
Of Two Players
Coming from behind in the last
few minutes of play in a basket
ball game yesterday, Beta Theta
Pi held a small lead of 9 to 4 over
Phi” Kappa Psi until the final
whistle, but due to the protesting
of two of their players by the Phi
Bsi’s the game was forfeited.
The two men protested, Socolof
sky and Reynolds, were held ineli
gible to play owing to a ruling
of the doughnut league which says
that men having participated in a
varsity or freshman contest for ]
this or any other college in inter- j
collegiate competition is not eligi- j
ble for the doughnut league in the j
events in which they have partici-1
pated.
The game as a whole was interest-1
ing to watch. The close guarding
of both teams held the score to a
small figure.
Joy, of the 'Betas, was high point
man of the game, annexing a total
of 4 points. Reynolds, rangy cen
ter, also played a consistent game
throughout but was held from
scoring any great number of points
by Hallin, center of the Phi Psis.
“Skipper” Smith, forward, and
“Swede” Kelson, guard, were con
sistent in their ability to break up .
the attack of the Betas.
Two games will be played this
afternoon, the first between Kappa
Delta Phi and Oregon club at 4
o’clock, followed by the Bachelor
don and Kappa Sigma contest.
These teams have been turning out
regular for practice and close con
tests are expected.
